V8 Vantage to Rapide

[oceantools]

Just wondering if anybody has made the transition from a V8 Vantage to a Rapide and, if so, what their thoughts are? As much as I love my Vantage, the fact it only has two seats mean we can't go anywhere as a family and have to take the much less fun Audi instead.

Or perhaps we should get a DB9 and shoehorn our little girl in the back? Has anybody on here owned both the DB9 and the Rapide?

Any insight gratefully received.

Thanks!

Many thanks for the feedback. I think I'll see if a pal will lend me his DB9 for a few days to see if the rug-rat will sit comfortably in the back. TBH, I think she'll be expecting the same level of comfort as the Audi or our X5 so will also see if I can get a day or two in a Rapide.

Toyed the the idea of Maserati a couple of times (and - dare I say it - Panamera as well!) but am now onto my third Aston and love the marque considerably.
